THE THEATRE. CovitNT-GARDEN.-..This Theatre opened last night for the season, with the Tragedy of Mac beth. We have already described the improved splendour of the interior, and the scene was heightened last night by an audience that com pletely filled the house. On the rising of the Curtain the vocal Performers tame forward and sung " God sore the King," the audience stand ing, and applauding with loyal fervour. The play then commenced. The part of Lady Macbeth. w,s performed by Mrs. YATES, an Actress of con siderable repute, as we undetstand, on the Dub lin Stage. Her person altogether strongly re sembles that of the first Mrs. Pope, iu her earlier days. Her voice is clear and well toned. Her utterance is distinct, and her ac tion, if not highly graceful, is easy and un affected. Her face, if not handsome, is ca pable of expression. There was nothing in her acting that arose to the height of excellence, but it was marked by plain sense and feeling. The chief error we noticed was in her addressing the following, words to Macbeth, instead Of deli• vering them in soliloquy, after she had snatched the daggers from him— —" If he (Duncan) do bleed, " I'll gild the faces of the grooms withal, " For it must seem their guilt." It is evident, that if she had looked at Macbelh while delivering these words, she would have seen that, in his state of consternation and honor, he would not have attended to them. Besides, th e thought was his own, for he haul previously sail - IVSen au have mark'd with blood those , lee ley two " Of his own Chamhir.and us'd their very daggers, " That they have don't ?" vv —Therefore there was no necessity for tel ling him to whom the guilt was to he imputed.— But Mrs. FATES, altogether, may be said to have made a tolerable stand in a vety difficult cha racter. it is too much the custom with public Critics to refer to Mrs. SionoNs ; but ii is obvious that they should take some " oblivious antidote " on these occasions, as none of her successors can he properly brought into the smallest comparison. Mr. YOUNG supported the part of Macbeth with great feeling throughout, and in several plssages made a strong impression, particularly in the Bun quet Scene. We cannot, however, agre e w i t h hi m in his address to the Ghost of Banquo— " Or, be alive again, " And dare rue to the desert with thy sword; " If trembling I inhabit, then protest me " The baby of u girl." Such we conceive to be the meaning—a contrast between the desert, and his own habitation—to adopt a familiar illustration " if you call ate out and I keep at home, then," &c. Mr. YOUNG said " if trembling I inhibit thee," which, if it has any meaning, has what is called a round-about one, not likely to have occurred to the Poet as proper at such a time. The audience were agreeably sur prised at seeing Mr. C. KEMBLE in Macdzfl', as he had been confined by illness at Dover. He ap peared somewhat languid in aspect, but the spirit of his acting was unimpaired, and be fully re quited the audience for the zeal of his reception. There was a strong expression of displeasure on the part of several persons among the audience, at intervals during the performance of MATTHEW LOCK'S admirable music, for which it was difficult to account. But we understand that a musical Reformer in the Theatre has made a sweeping dis mission among the Band, and perhaps the disap probation may be imputed to some of them, or their connexions. The afterpiece was The Miller and his Men. The performers in general, both in play and farce, received a very favourable greet ing as they respectively appeared. AliS3 KELLY, though somewhat better ; is not likely to be able to resume her labours at the English Opera Haase during the present season.— The great anxiety of this excellent Actress for the performance of her duty on all occasions is said to have been the chief cause of her indisposition. Miss BYRNE and SINCLAIR continue to perform with eclat at Edinburgh. THE LORD LIEUTENANT. —We understand that his Excellency has commenced his tour through the country. He was to have dined yesterday, it is said, at Murphy's Inn, Killarney, where lodg ings have been provided, and every other suitable preparation made for him. Gen .Gordon, command ing this district, has received intimation that his Ex cellency will arrive in this city on the Sib inst. and possibly on the the 6th or 7th. The Grand Duke Michael does not accompany his Excellency.— We understand the Sheriffs anti Common Speaker are to proceed to Killarney, with an invitation to his Excellency, from the Mayor and Corporation, and a request that he may favour them with the p poi nt went of a day on which he would honour them with his company at a civic feast at the Mansion House.—(Cork Advertiser, Sept. 3.) CHICHESTER, SEPT. s.—We are happy to state that the Grand Junction Canal from Arundel to Portsmouth is now in rapid progress. The branch to Hunsion was begun on Tuesday, and a great number of hands are already en gaged. The day was ushered in by the tinging or bells, and several of the managers and their friends dined together at the Dolphin Inn. THE UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE.—BRUCE, the tra veller, was fond of strewing his visitors at Ken naird, fac-similes of the thirty different languages that were spoken in the camp of the Caravans in Africa. To spare the ears of the unlearned, he called these languages the red, blue, green, &c. according to the colours of its character. On showing these MSS. to a Lady, disting:tished for the vivacity of her remarks, and informing her tirat the word kiss was to be met with, expressing the same idea, in some passages of his rainbow of languages, she pleasantly observed—" lVeIl now, and did not I tell you, Mr. BRUCE, that kissing is the same all the world over ?" The Right Hon. Lord DOUGLAS, of Douglas, has presented the Rev. ARCHIBALD M'CoNECHY, Glasgow, to the Church and United Parish of Buncle and Preston, in the PrAbytery of Dunse, vacant by the death of the Rev. JOHN CAMPBELL. The accounts from Leeds, and the other prin cipal clod ig towns in Yorkshire, state, that the orders were never known to be greater than at present, and that the greatest harmony subsists between the masters and their workmen.

MIDDLESEX SEssloNs.—This morning, at an early hour, the Court was crowded to an excess by persons of the highest respectability, a great interest having been excited by the following case :—Mr. W. Deacon, the master of an eminent academy at the west end of the town, was placed at the bar, charged with cruelly assaulting one of his scholars. The prosecution was conducted by Mr. AGAR, and Mr. ALLEY appeared for the de fendant, when, after a long investigation, in which Lady Afflick and several others were exa mined, the CHAIRMAN summed up the evidence in a speech replete with learning and impartiality, and the Jury found the defendant Not Guilty, which was received with much satisfaction. ELOPEMENT.—A young couple, on their return from Gretna Green, a few days ago, arrived at George Inn, Penrith, at the very moment the bride's mother and brother, in pursuit of the fu gitives, stopped there to change horses. An in terview took place, which was not followed by a reconciliation, and the parties arrived in London by different routes. The young Lady is said to be in possession of a handsome fortune, and the bridegroom is connected with a house of some eminence in the cotton trade. For the satisfaction of the Subaltern Officers of Militia, it is necessary to state, application is making for them to receive the allowance quar terly, instead of half-yearly ; indeed it is even said they will soon be placed on the same footing with respect to pay as Half-pay Officers of the Line are, it would be very desirable that the half-pay should be the same in every instance ; for some Ensigns to have 3s. per day, and others only Is. 10d. appears to require some explanation. JOHN MteNe, Esq. the Coroner, having sum moned a most respectable Jury, proceeded on Friday to investigate the cause of the death of Thomas Brookes, the spinner, aged 22, who died in the Infirmary on Thursday morning, in conse quence of the wounds he received in the attack made on Mr. Gray's factory about noon on the Wednesday. It appeared in the course of the evi dence that he was a most active assailant on that occasion ; and the Jury, after a patient investiga tion of eight hours, during which many witnesses were examined who were spectators of the whole transaction, returned a verdict of Justifiable Homicide on the part of the defenders of the Mill. (Leeds Intelligeneer, Sept. 7.) For some days past, the take of herrings has been very great in the channel nearly opposite to Portpatrick. On the morning of Wednesday se'n night, a great number of boats went into that port deeply laden, and sold their fish at from 3s. Gd. to 4s. Gd. per hundred. The total va :He amounted to about 10001. for one night's fish ing. The herrings were purchased for the Dublin and Belfast markets, some in barrels, but mostly in bulk, slightly salted.—(Edinburgh Courant, Sept. 5.) CAUTION TO TAVERN-KEEPERS.—On Saturday afternoon, a well-dressed man, about 5 feet 8 or 9 inches in height, with sandy whiskers, called at the Fountain Tavern, in Catherine-street,and re quested to look at the Newspaper ; he was shewn into a room ; after remaining a few minutes, he came out and lett the Paper at the bar. Upon the waiter going into the room, he discovered he had stolen four French window-curtains, and must h a ve wrapped thew round his body. The INFLUENCE of RELIGION on the STATE. FOR THE SUN. The interest of tru e re li g i on s h ou ld never sub.. mit to the interest of policv• It should rather unite them in one. Christianity, as it teaches universal benevolence, requires that all hat ions should have the best political lams ; because they afford the greatest good that mankind Can possibly enjoy. In the history of civilization, religion in all Countries has been the foundation of Govern ment, and they have been ancillary to each other ; one to teach us obedience to the whole some laws of policy, under qualified liberty ; the other to cotrect our judgments and amen , ' our hearts ; both combining to improve oar happi ness, awaken hope and deadLn despair ; to inspire love and dispel fear. As good laws are a restraint on actions, so Pound religion is a restraint on thought, having for their end peace and good-will to all, with an abhor rence of iniquity in any. This is real liberty, which is to do not!ling in human affairs, but what we ought to will. Not to touch on the evils pro duced by pretended religion, or its name, the ad vantages of the TRUE con , titute a lar ge balance in the scale of virtue. He who loves religion may be compared to a lion, who stoops to the hood that strokes him ; as he who hates it may to a savage, who growls, and bites the Chain that confines him from tnischiet ; b it he who has none is a ferocious animal, who knows nothing of li berty, except when he commits destruction. The Christian religion has nothing despotic in its doctrines. It is mild, and averse to rage, ani mosity, and cruelty. Christian Princes arc libe ral and humane ; sensible that they cannot do what they please, unless what they please be for the general good, which creates a mutual confi dence between them and their subjects. Ilaiing in view happiness in another hie, it continues the happiness of the present. In government we owe to it our political laws, and in war the law of nations ; benefits we never can sufficiently ac knowledge, as it humanizes our manners, and increases our charity. This is more material than to contend polemically that any religion in parti cular is the only true one. None should 1w pre scribed by conquerors, kings, or magistrates. All should be free, and none should spe.,k by the sword. Peter fought with one civil, and another clerical, which were afterwards claimed by his Papal successors ; yet he soon after renounced his master, and died. It should be formed to the government of particular states. When di vided into Catholic and Protestant, the people of the north chose the latter, and of the south the former ; because those of the north had, and ever will have, a spirit of liberty and Milt-petlance, which those of the south never can. Hence it is that a religion which has no visible heart is more favoured by a free people than that ,t hick has one. Wherever the Protestant religion was esta blished, the changes were made according to the genius of the peculiar government. Luther in Germany was countenanced by powerful Princes, or they would not have favoured any church authority that had no exterior pre-eminence Calvin, on the contrary, engaged the attention of people in the republican states of Geneva, and of obscure subjects in monarchies, but avoided, as of course, the establishment of honors and pre ferments. Each was believed to be the most per fect. The Calvinist thought his tw,de the most conformable to what the great Master had said: the Lutheran to what the Apostles had prac tised. Christian Citizens being enlightened in the duties of life, and zealous in their discharge, maintain the rights of ►►atural defence, against the opinion of those who assert that they cannot form a government of any duration. The tnore they are indebted to religion, the more they think is due to their Country. Having it in their hearts, more than their mouths. it is more power ful than the tinselled honour of Monarchies. the presumptive virtue of Republics, or the slavish fear of. Despotism. (To be Continued.) MAYNARD. THUNDER STORM.—The parish of Kirkcowan, in the county of Wigtown, was visited with an awful thunder-storm cri the evening of the 18th of July last. David Irani, a poor labourer, was struck with the lightning, and killed upon the spot, as he was returning from a meadow field, within about 200 yards of his own door. His wif e , who had awaited his return with the tit most anxiety, at last ventured in the midst of the storm, accom panied by a female beggar who had taken shelter in her cot, and was the first to discover her husband, who lay dead on the brink of a small rivulet There appeared no particular marks on the body, but part of a stepping-stone on which the deceased lay, had been struck and carried away. It des, rves to be mentioned, that the humane neigh bouts who at tended the funeral subscribed 41., for the benefit of his widow, and six helpless children. DRATH BY A SPRING GUN.--Yesterday morn ing died CHARLHS GRANT, Esq. an eminent Russia broker, of Grove-road, Mile-end. On Sunday se'tinight, about ten at night, he took his usual walk round his,grounds. Not being aware of the servant's having set the spring gun, he trod on the wire, and received its contents, consisting of five slugs, in the back part of his thigh. Sir Wst; BLlzzatto extracted the sings, but a mortification ensued, and terminated his existence. He hag left a widow anti two children. DRATH BY PIGEON-SHoOTlNG.—Yesterday an Inquest was held at the Rochester Castle, Stoke Newington, on the body of Mr. Joins IVottKmAti, aged twenty-one. The father of the young man deposed, that he and his son were looking at some men who were pigeon-shooting in a field near the road to Hornsey, when his son was shot in the thigh. Another witness said, that the gun, by which the deceased was shot, was held horizontally by one of tile pigeon shooters, and it went off by accident. Verdict—Accidental Death. The heather covering on a part of the Derby. shire Moors, belonging, as we are informed, to the Duke of DavoNsittae, has been set fire to and burnt to a considerable extent, the uncom mon dryness of the eeasQu having favourcci th infamous purpose.
